X-Men ‘97 creator Beau DeMayo has some required viewing for fans before the first season finale of the acclaimed Disney Plus series.
"Your final #xmen97 homework assignment: X-Men: The Animated Series - ‘The Final Decision’," DeMayo wrote on Twitter.
For those without an encyclopedic knowledge of ‘90s X-Men cartoon titles, The Final Decision – the finale of the first season of 1992’s X-Men: The Animated Series – features the X-Men and Magneto joining forces to combat a greater threat: Master Mold and legions of mutant-killing Sentinels.
As luck would have it, the X-Men are in a similar position again, facing down Bastion and the Sentinels. This time, though, Magneto seems less than willing to team up with the X-Men – and even recreated a brutal Wolverine comics moment to really put his point across.
DeMayo, who was fired by Marvel weeks before the premiere of X-Men ‘97 having completed work on the second season, previously suggested the three-episode stretch culminating in the finale was the “big one” after fans were left emotionally devastated by episode 5’s shocking conclusion.
X-Men ‘97 is currently airing on Disney Plus. For more, check out the X-Men ‘97 release schedule and this collection of X-Men '97 Easter eggs. Want more? Here are all the new superhero movies flying into cinemas very soon.
